There was a small thread on replacing TR6 steering rack bushings
recently, so my apologies for not asking more when the opportunity
arrived. Someone mentioned using needle-nose or similar Vice Grip
pliers to hold the steering rack mounts in place before tightening.
????? I noticed that TRF lists a tool for this (sorry don't have the
part no. handy) but I'm unsure as to proper placement, method, etc. Is
the spreading tool completly necessary? I do know that simply replacing
the bushings without compressing them results in a rack that still
moves. This seems to be a common repair, so any help from fellow Six
enthusiasts would be great!
TIA
